Learning How To Smile - Everclear

5 miles outside of Vegas when we broke down
Threw my keys inside the window and we never looked back
Got all drunk and sloppy on a greyhound bus
We passed out all them losers they were laughin at us

I will never let them break your heart
No I will never let them break me

We got lost in phoenix seemed like such a long time
Seven months of livin swimmin on those thing white lies
Did some time for selling acid to the wrong guy
Life just keeps on getting smaller and we never ask why

Why there is no perfect place yes I know this is true
I'm just learning how to smile, that's not easy to do
I know there will come a day
When we can leave and just go running away

We was broke outside of LA when the storms came
I was workin in New Jersey hitchin rides in the rain
We was happy talking dirty at that phone sex place
Life just keeps on getting better for us everyday

You say there is no perfect place I say I know this is true
I'm just learning how to smile, that's not easy to do
We both live for the day when we can run away
Oh baby we can leave and run away
Yes we can leave this place and run away
We can leave it all behind like we do everytime
Yes we both live for the day when we can leave and just go running away

I will never let them break your heart
No I will never let them break me

5 miles outside of Vegas 5 years down the line
We got married in the desert in the sunshine
When you smile and touch my face they can all just go away

Yes I know there is no finish line I know this never ends
I'm just learning how to fall and climb back up again
I know there's nothing perfect I know there's nothing new
I'm just learning how to live together me and you
You know I live for the day when you say baby lets just run away
Yes we can leave and run away
Yes we can leave this place and run away
